Chapter 0086: Queldanas Island

On the island of Queldanus, there is one thing that the High Elves rely on to survive and cherish the most: the Well of the Sun! It is the most important source of magic for the High Elves!

The Well of the Sun is the source of powerful magical energy that covers the entire realm of Quel'Thalas, and it was harnessed by the High Elf ancestors. It was made from one of the bottles of water from the Well of Eternity, which Fury Wind stole from the Well of Eternity.

About 6,800 years before the Dark Gate was opened, the High Elves who had been banished by the Night Elves came here, and they took over the place they called Quel'Thalas, and named themselves the High Elves to distinguish them from the Night Elves! Then, they built this special magic well and began to build their own glorious magical civilization!

The High Elves who came to Azeroth were greatly strengthened by the near-infinite magical power of the Well of the Sun, so they built their main city, Silvermoon City, near the island of Quel'Thanus, near the northern part of Quel'Thalas.

As their power grew, they cast a spell on the "Forest of Eternal Song", bathing them in eternal spring light. Elven mages have built so-called "Runestones" on the borders of Quel'Salas – massive blocks of stone that form a magic shield that allows the elves to hide their magic from pretenders from outside the world, while protecting the land from invasion.

Aside from a high-intensity war with the Amani trolls more than about 2,800 years ago, the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas has hardly ever had a major war in the past 3,000 years! As for the war when the orcs attacked Quel'Salas and dug up the runestones more than ten years ago, it could only be regarded as a low-intensity local war, and the High Elves at that time did not suffer much loss.

And now, after countless years of peace, Quel'Salas is finally about to usher in an all-out war that will affect almost all of the High Elves!

Their elves' enemies this time are a huge and boundless army of the undead who are not afraid of death, and the target of their undead is the most cherished treasure of their High Elves: the Well of the Sun!

So, now on Queldanus Island, countless High Elf elite rangers, royal guards, a large number of spellbreakers, and high-level mages are all waiting for them! They plan to be right here, to give the undead who dare to peek at their elven treasures a good look!

Is the current king of the High Elves Anastarian? The Sunchaser, and the First King of the High Elves, Darth Rema the Pioneer? The Sun-Chaser was his great-grandfather. Anastarian ascended to the throne at the end of the Troll War, and it was he who made a pact with the human kingdom of Arathso that he was able to defeat the invincible Amani Trolls!

And now, the covenants of the past have long since been broken, and when the High Elves faced the undead scourge, it was finally time for him to swallow the evil he had sowed! On the other side, the threat of the undead, their elves can only resist alone, and they can't get any help from the Alliance! After all, it was he who was the first to tear up the covenant in the first place!

On the platform of a magical tower in the Sunwell Heights, King Anastarian and his courtiers discuss the details of the defense of Queldanus Island.

On the platform above this magic tower, in addition to King Anastarian on the main throne, all the members of the Council of Silvermoon City are also sitting below, most of them are high-level mages, it can be said that most of the elite combat power of the High Elves has been concentrated on this island!

"Your Majesty, according to the information from the dragon eagle scouts in Silvermoon City before, the Death Knight and his army of undead did not go north to Silvermoon City, but went west to the Western Temple, and their intentions are unknown!" One of the councillors took out a copy of the previous information and began to read it to the king and the rest of the councillors.

"The intel also says that the Ranger General Sylvanas seems to have been aided by a powerful human mage who set a fire and burned down the main road to Silvermoon City, and the continued fire caused the undead to change their route, which may be the reason why they went to the Western Temple."

"Well..., the magic fluctuations in the south of the Yongge Forest, I'm sure you have all felt it, this level of magic power is almost the same as you working together to cast a large legion strategic spell! If it weren't for all of you here, I would even think that if your mage group had secretly run to help that little girl from the Windranger house set off a large area of a rain of flames? Alas...! I can't figure it out, when did the short-lived human race emerge with such a powerful mage? ”

Anastarian, who was sitting on the throne, sighed, and finally shook his head, he couldn't figure it out! He didn't know why, but such a powerful mage suddenly appeared to help them with the High Elves!

This is very unreasonable! You know, the relationship between their High Elves and the Human Lordaeron Alliance is very stiff now, especially not long after the end of the Second Orc War, he Anastarian was the first to pick the thorn and take the lead in withdrawing from the Lordaeron Alliance......

"Tell me why this powerful human mage has come to help us Quel'Thalas, what does she want from us?"

That's what Anastarian cares about most! After being a king for almost 3,000 years, his political sense is extremely sensitive! So, now when he saw a human running to help him a lot, the first thing he thought of was: the person who came was not good! The other party must be hoping to get something from the High Elves!

"Your Majesty, I may have a different opinion." An old mage of the Silvermoon Council stood up, and after seeing that the king had no objection, he continued.

"After my observation and detection, the fire in the south of the Yongge Forest can be unleashed at least by a master of refined fire magic above the legendary level, and it must take a lot of time to prepare! But the intelligence also said that the other party had already completed the spell casting in a short period of time, if this was the case, then at least the strength of a demigod must be done! But as far as I know, it seems that the only demigod of the human race is the guardian of the mysterious Tirisfa Council, Medivan! But he seems to have been killed by their own humans a long time ago! There should be no guardians for humans now! So ......"

With that, the old councillor took a slight breath and looked around at the other councillors who were having a private discussion after hearing his words, as well as the king, who was silent and thoughtful.

"Please go on." Anastarian seemed to have something in mind, and raised his hand to signal that he could continue.

"So, I'm skeptical! The little human girl who came to help us with Quel'Thalas, she may not be human at all! And, I believe you should have seen what was written in the information, how could there be a human demigod mage who was about eight years old? This is simply ridiculous! No way! ”

Anyway, this old councillor absolutely does not believe that humans have an eight-year-old demigod mage! Their original knowledge of magic was taught to them by the High Elves!

The old councillor himself was one of the envoys who had gone to the kingdom of Soladin to teach human spells, so when he first saw the information, he thought it must be a bad joke! That little girl couldn't be human!

Although the old councillor also admits that some human spell attainments are even close to catching up with their High Elves, such as the Antonidas of Dalaran, the other party does surpass the High Elves in some arcane arts. But that's just the exception! He never believed that an eight-year-old little human girl could reach or even surpass that level! If there is such a thing, then wouldn't he have lived in vain for thousands of years?

"So, Your Excellency, ...... do you think that powerful little mage is?" After some discussion with the people around him, a young councillor finally began to ask a question.

"As you should know, the Titans have been endowed with powerful and mysterious powers, and they are all capable of transforming into any race at will! Whether it's humans, elves, or dwarves or whatever. Therefore, the true identity of the little human girl who is still staying in Silvermoon City is still up for debate. ”

After saying this, the old councillor nodded and sat down, he had already said what he had to say, now he had to rest for a while! After all, he was thousands of years old.

"That's right! In that case, it makes sense! I also know that some ancient dragons are particularly good at fire magic, and it wouldn't be too strange if that fire was made by a dragon! After the young lawmakers chimed in, the other lawmakers nodded in agreement.

"That's it! That's the end of the issue! It doesn't matter if it's a human or a dragon, at least, she's here to help us in our fight against the undead so far, that's enough, don't talk about it anymore! Let's move on to the next topic. ”

Anastarian nodded as well, roughly agreeing with the old councillor's speculation. Since the mysterious and powerful mage is here to help the elves, let's wait until the war is over! No matter what she is or what she wants, when the time comes, the Kingdom of Quel'Salas will show enough sincerity to repay the favor this time.

"Your Majesty, there is also a report on the report of the high-ranking mage Ferendre who stayed in Silvermoon City against the Ranger General Sylvanas, do you want it?" After getting past the question, another member of parliament stood up, and then he was holding a secret letter with a clay seal in his hand, and he didn't know if he should read it out now.

"Huh! Interesting! Then you might as well drive it out and take a look, and everyone will listen to it. "It's all at this time, and you can still hear someone report against the supreme governor stationed in Silvermoon City, this is really rare, King Anastarian almost laughed angrily!

"Yes! Your Majesty. Uh..., the letter said that the Ranger General Sylvanas issued an order for urgent recruitment without anyone's consent and without any discussion with the remaining officials as soon as he took over the city's defenses, and ......" opened the letter, and after seeing the contents of the back, the councillor was slightly surprised before continuing to read.

"And at the same time issued a city-wide mobilization order, she made all the citizens ready for a big retreat.....".

"What?!"

"How can this be? Who gave her this right? ”

"It's a mess! Is she going to leave Silvermoon City? Is she crazy? ”

"Alas! This time, the little girl of the Windranger family is really messed up! What a confusion! ”

"This ......"

“……”

Before King Anastarian could express his opinion, the councillors below quarreled first, some refuted the Ranger General's indiscriminate overstepping of his authority, some clamored to send someone to seize her command immediately, and even suggested that she be arrested and imprisoned immediately, and of course, there were some who intended to defend her, but their defense seemed a little weak.

“……”

King Anastarian didn't say anything, he just squinted his eyes half-squinting, as if smiling, and let the councillors below quarrel, and no one knew what was going on in the king's heart.

"That's it! Shut up! This matter is put on hold for now, and discussed after the threat of the undead has passed! Next......"

With a wave of his hand, Anastarian doesn't plan to take any action against the Ranger General Sylvanas now, after all, changing generals on the spot is a taboo for soldiers!

Moreover, among the high elves of the entire Quel's Salas, only the little girl of the Windranger family has been resisting the invasion of the undead since the first gate, and in general, she has done a good job!

Now among the high elves in the entire Quel'Salas Kingdom, she is probably the only one who knows the most about the undead, right? Anastarian believed that there was probably a reason why she had to do so, so let the matter be put on hold for now!

"Your Majesty, the next question is about the material reserves, now ...... on Queldanus Island" As another councillor in charge of logistics was about to start reporting on the details of the material reserves, an intelligence officer hurriedly ran up from the spiral staircase of the tower.

"Your Majesty! General Sylvanas Ranger sent the Dragon Eagle Scout to deliver urgent information: the undead army has built a bridge of ice on the sea out of thin air, hundreds of thousands of undead have set out from the Western Temple, destroying the island of Sunrise in less than an hour, and now they are preparing to head north to Quildanas Island, and the general wants us to prepare early! ”

“……”

"Ridiculous! Still the Ice Bridge? Phew! Are you a spy? Dare to spread false information? Do you know how far the Bay of the Western Temple is from the island of Sunrise? No one can build a bridge that long out of thin air! We can't do it with the mage group! Not to mention that human prince! Or is he a knight? ”

As soon as the intelligence officer finished speaking, after everyone was silent for a while, a grumpy congressman came out on the spot and spat on him!

In this councilor's opinion, no one can build a bridge of ice from the bay of the Western Temple that can provide the passage of hundreds of thousands of undead! That's not the power that mortals should have!

In fact, not only the grumpy parliamentarian, but the other councillors were also suspicious, or frowned at the intelligence officer who was half-kneeling on the ground, the news he brought was indeed a bit outrageous!

"Your Majesty, I suggest that this intelligence officer be interrogated properly! He ...... "The grumpy councillor was about to make a proposal to the king, but was interrupted by the king's fierce hand-raising.

"No need to make any noise! He didn't lie! Because, they're already here! ”

King Anastarian slammed to his feet from the throne and looked at the beach in the distance with a serious expression! It can be seen clearly from this tower platform! Where, a huge ice bridge was formed on the beach in an instant!

Many high-ranking councilors also noticed the anomaly, and stood up from their positions one by one, their faces full of shock, and they looked at the coast in the distance with incredible eyes. The water there was frozen into solid ice in an instant! Unexpectedly, there really is a bridge of ice?

The direction of its connection is obviously the island of the sun! The Sea of the Undead can really build a frost bridge from Sunchase Island here! And in the distance of the bridge, countless undead are surging along the bridge, they are like black ink, gradually crowding the white ice bridge, and then rushing along the bridge, dyeing black little by little in the direction of Queldanus Island! They're about to land!

Fast! They're coming so fast!

Anastari sighed in peace of mind, the Dragon Eagle Riders had just sent the news on their front feet, and their back feet came! I don't want to give more time to react! Don't these undead really need to rest?

"Prepare for battle......"
